Benefit Certificates Versus Life-Iu.
surance POiicIes.


CHICAGO, November 30. Judge Tuley
this morning rendered an interesting de-
cision in a suit involving the liability Of
the Independent Order of Foresters
under their insurance policies. The suit
was brought on application OF the high
court OF the society 10 help it arrive at
an equitable settlement Of disputed
claim of the nature indicated. William
II. Niemeyer was a member OF the order
in good standing and was insured for
81 900, the policy being made ont pay
able to his wife. He died in 1886, leaving
a will bequsathing $500 of the insurance
money to his sons and the remaining
500 TO his wife. The wife made claim
on the society for the whole sum, and
the society filed bill to have the
wife and two sons interplead as to
the ownership. In deciding this
peculiar case to-day Judge Tuley
said Some courts, perceiylng the re-
semblance between the benefit certif-
Gates issued by these mutual aid associa-
tons and policies of hfe-insurrance,
have applied the rules and law governing
liie-insrance policies in deciding ques-
tons arising under these benefit certif-
Gates. In an ordinary life policy where
the amount insured IS expressly made
payable to the wife or other named beneh-
ciary the policy Is held to be a contract
between the beneficiary named in the
policy and thecompany issuing the same.
and such contract cannot be changed
without the consent OF the beneficiary
After some explanatory remarks as to
the differences in cases alluded to,
the Judge said: Was it the intent of
this society TO enter into a contract
with the wife of Niemeyer, or was
it the intent of the society to enter into
an undertaking or agreement with its
members Most clearly the latter. No
relations existed between the wife and
society, but all that existed were be-
tween Niemeyer and the society. The
certificate onl " recognizes Niemeyer as
the contracting party. He signs under
meath and says ~ accept this certif-
cate under the conditions named" The
society agrees not only that he may
direct to whom the endowment shall be
paid, but also that he may at his pleasure
change that direction. The only limita-
ton of this power of appointment or di-
rection as to whom the money is to be
paid Is that he shall direct by his
last will and testament or by endowment
certificate. The fact that the power is
given a member by the constitution
of the society TO change the beneficiary
at his pleasure, and that he may by his
last will and testament as his ultimate
wish designate or direct who shall receive
the endowment fund, sufficiently indi-
Gates to my mind the intent that the di-
rection in the viii shall prevail over any
previous direction or appointment in the
certificate or otherwise. The decree will
go in favor OF the deyisees in the will.
